Could a rhinoplasty correct my wide, upturned nose? (Photos)

Asked By:EmmaB224 in Mississippi, MS

Hi! In 2013 I had corrective jaw surgery (upper and lower jaws) which left my nose wider and more upturned than before. My nose is also somewhat "round" and my nostrils seem to look uneven. I would like for my nose to be a bit slimmer and come to a more defined point at the tip without being so upturned. Would this be possible with a rhinoplasty?
